telephone line may result in the devices not

ringing in response to an incoming call. In

most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs

should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of

the number of devices that may be connected

to the line, as determined by the total RENs,

contact the telephone company to determine

the maximum REN for the calling area.
